Ratty's Wisdom Boat | 53' Oyster 2003

The Oyster 53, conceived as the younger sibling to the highly acclaimed Oyster 56, is a remarkable achievement in its own right.

Designed by Rob Humphreys, this model, the second in the Oyster lineup, enjoyed considerable success, with fifty-two vessels launched between 1999 and 2008.

Renowned for being fast, well-balanced, superb in poor weather, and simple to handle, the 53, is a fantastic Oyster.  

Launched in 2003, Ratty's Wisdom is a great example of a yacht that has been configured to deliver.

Below decks, she offers great versatility and potential capability for long-distance cruising with 3 spacious cabins, and an extra fourth featuring a convenient single cabin/workshop. Despite being the smallest Oyster with a 3 cabin layout, the fully equipped galley, and spacious entertaining space make the Oyster 53 feel much bigger than her size. Beautifully appointed in teak with neutral palette tones throughout, she is adaptable and equipped for anything.  Featuring:
